Hello plantladylin!
I wondered the same thing about the palms initially, but it seems there are the large trees at the beach that are Kentia and then there are the indoor house plant variety... Maybe when they're outdoors over time they would mature into the other look?
I'm new at indoor palms so I'm not entirely sure.
Here are some photos I took earlier today of damaged fronds... I clipped most off already to make them look better but maybe it'll help figure out the problem!
I also discovered the stalks of the fronds are developing the same black speckles that the first ones that died already had when we got them.
Not sure what that is either...
